Audit Quest Variety

Audit the player experience across a quest portfolio, not merely the prose of individual quests.

Variety is multidimensional. Two quests can have different stories but feel identical if the player performs the same verbs in the same order.

Dimensions

Player verbs

Kill, collect, talk, investigate, navigate, sneak, protect, trade, choose, etc.

Objective grammar

Sequence patterns such as:

• travel → kill → return
• talk → collect → talk
• investigate → confront → choose

Narrative fantasy

Detect whether supposedly different quests repeatedly express the same fantasy.
